Bosnia and Herzegovina Community Advice Centre BHCAC About Us The Charity that improves the lives of disadvantaged and marginalised people while cherishing Bosnian culture and preserving the British Bosnian heritage for generations to come Background Bosnia and Herzegovina Community Advice Centre BHCAC was set up in 1997 in Willesden Green London Borough of Brent by Bosnian war survivors and former refugees to provide continued support for vulnerable members of the Bosnian community once the programme of support from the Government through Refugee Council ended. St Andrews Church in Willesden Green generously provided space to accommodate volunteers work while Trust for London funded a first initiative project enabling the Charity to roll out its first services to the Bosnian refugee community in London. Since then further and more significant financial support came from different sources such as City Bridge Foundation Lloyds Bank Foundation the National Lottery Community Fund and Brent Council. This financial support enabled the Charity to engage bilingual professionals including advisors lawyers a clinical psychologist and counsellor and to roll out comprehensive programmes of support and address survivors multiple and complex needs.
